Chapter 371: The deal was reached, which inadvertently became the beginning of the unrest!
"What's this?"
Su Mu pointed to a pile of black wood stacked next to the yard and asked.
Hearing this, the red-haired old man stood up, walked to the wood, and explained with a smile: "These are all woods used to make coffins."
"I've used this coffin for a very long time. I have to build a new one."
"Is this your way of cultivation?" Su Mu was a little confused.
"I guess so." The red-haired old man smiled.
The two sat at the wooden table, sipping tea. Then Su Mu thought of something and asked, "In other words, you lie in the coffin to practice, and then you will pollute the river water uncontrollably?"
"Yes, but I won't do that again. I won't cause trouble for you, Senior."
The red-haired old man thought Su Mu was warning him, so he quickly waved his hand.
"I'll make you a deal."
Su Mu said straight to the point.
"trade?"
"Since this is your way of practicing, I won't interfere with you."
"You can continue to practice like this, but... I have a condition." Su Mu said word by word.
"Please speak, senior," the red-haired old man said seriously.
"You cannot pollute the waters of the main river. You can only practice in some tributary waters."
"Also, you can't keep practicing in the same place. After practicing for a certain period of time, you have to change places. You can't make it too smoky and lifeless."
"After you leave, I will clean up the waters you polluted, and it won't affect your normal practice. How about that?"
Su Mu put forward three conditions to the red-haired old man.
His idea was very simple, that is, to allow the red-haired old man to practice on the river and pollute the waters to a certain extent, but not too much. When it reaches a certain level, he has to change places and grasp the degree. Then Su Mu will purify it, which will invisibly increase Su Mu's progress in earning favor points.
After hearing this, the red-haired old man was stunned and somewhat shocked.
Aren’t our predecessors responsible for maintaining the stability of the long river of time?
Why do you allow yourself to pollute the world?
He was a little confused and didn't know how to answer.
"Senior, are you serious?" the red-haired old man asked for confirmation.
"Yeah." Su Mu nodded.
"But we cannot pollute the main river channel, we can only choose some tributaries." Su Mu said again.
“That’s no problem!”
How could he have the right to pollute the mainstream of time?
He doesn't have that ability!
Then, the red-haired old man stood up, walked to the side of the hut, picked up a hoe, dug a small hole, and took out a jar of wine from it.
"Senior, do you drink?"
"I have treasured this jar of wine for many years, but I have never found a suitable opportunity to drink it. Since you have come to my humble home today, if you don't mind, I will fill it up for you."
The red-haired old man asked with a smile.
"Then drink some."
After the wine enters the bowl, it exudes a very mellow and rich aroma, which is very unique.
After Su Mu took a sip, his eyes lit up: "Good wine."
This is indeed a good wine. Su Mu has tasted all kinds of wines over the years, but this is the first time he has drunk this kind of wine. After the wine enters his throat, a warm feeling flows along the meridians to nourish the whole body, giving him an indescribable sense of comfort and clarity.
The wine that can make Su Mu feel this way is indeed a good wine!
"Take care, senior."
The red-haired old man clasped his fists.
Su Mu left this place and remembered the breath of the red-haired old man. As long as he was still practicing on this river, he could find him at any time.
All the heavens and worlds, above the plateau.
"Everything has been resolved." Ye Fan said with emotion after receiving the news from the world behind.
The strange plateau disappeared, and the threat from the rear also disappeared, which means that the source of the strangeness has been completely cut off.
"Senior Huang, will you go back with us?"
Ye Fan said to Huang.
Huang stared at the plateau for a long time, unable to come back to his senses, and said faintly: "You guys go first, I want to stay here alone to heal my wounds."
He was afraid that the root cause had not been completely eradicated, so he planned to continue guarding this place for a few hundred years and heal his wounds at the same time.
Ten strange Immortal Emperors stood on the ground, lost in thought. All their cultivation had disappeared, and their realm had fallen to the level of Divine Transformation.
Because they were able to grow to this point relying on the blood of "that adult". Now that he has been captured, everything has been cleansed and purified, and all the cultivation they gained from it has disappeared.
"I took them away."
Ye Fan waved his hand and put the ten strange ancestors into his sleeves.
Because the ten strange ancestors had always been a huge mountain pressing down on the world behind them, bringing them back to the world behind them and imprisoning them was a kind of explanation, and it also meant that the war that had lasted for countless years was finally over.
It was all thanks to Senior Su's actions, otherwise, this war would have continued for who knows how many more years.
They will live their own lives in the future and continue to pursue higher realms. They have understood from this battle that even someone as strong as Black Coffin is still so small in front of the truly powerful. This has made them realize their own weakness and inadequacy. They must become stronger to be qualified to see the scenery at a higher level, or at least not become someone's pawns without knowing it.
Ye Fan and the other two passed by the Long River of Time and said goodbye to Su Mu solemnly. They would probably not come to the Long River of Time many times in the future.
They remembered Senior Su's great kindness deeply in their hearts, and they would repay this great favor when they become truly strong and capable in the future.
That night.
Su Mu sat under the nanmu tree and meditated.
His Favor Points have accumulated to one million, and he plans to use them all at once to increase his affinity.
[Favor Points - 1,000,000]
[River affinity: 60%] → [River affinity: 70%]
As the affinity increased to 70%, Su Mu could feel that his connection with the long river became more in tune, as if he had "touched the essence".
This feeling is somewhat mysterious, and Su Mu has difficulty describing it.
In short, his connection with this long river was only on the "surface" before, but now he has slowly touched the "inner essence".
Still need three million favor points!
Judging from the current progress, he would be able to completely refine the river and get out in two years at the fastest and no more than three years at the slowest.
Thinking of this, Su Mu became full of motivation and energy!
The next day.
Su Mu got up early and prepared to go out to work.
At this moment, the five little ones in the backyard suddenly ran in front of him, looking anxious, and babbling for a long time.
"Can't find it?"
Su Mu frowned slightly.
"I'll go and take a look."
After saying that, Su Mu came to the backyard and looked around, but indeed couldn't find it.
"When did you lose it?"
Su Mu asked the little groundhog.
